1.2lbs off. Pathetic! Particularly frustrating because when I did my mid-week weigh in, I was another pound lighter than I am today. Obviously I only have myself to blame (3 course meal Friday night, albeit with mostly sensible choices) and TOTM, but still.
My losses have not been great recently - over the last 4 weeks I've only lost about 8lbs. I really hope they pick up again - I had decided to stay on the diet for 16 weeks, which means I have 6 weeks to lose 18lbs. I know that should be possible, but I hope I haven't set myself up for a disappointment.
Need to get remotivated. I know Friday night knocked me out of ketosis, so the next couple of days will be hard but I MUST stick with it. Yesterday I had my 3 shakes but also a couple of Atkins bars as I was so ravenous - partly due to no ketosis, and TOTM I think. At least they were 'sensible' food choices. Today I'm ONLY having my 3 shakes. I have nothing coming up that will encourage me to eat food until I go on holiday for a couple of days on 24th October. That's 2 weeks today - so my mission is to stay 100% for the next 2 weeks and hopefully will drop another half stone, allowing me to tick off another 2 goals - reaching the 3 stone marker (3lbs to go), and getting into the 11's (5lbs to go). I think I will feel an awful lot better when I have less than a stone to go to goal!
